About the Item

Contemporary Abstract Sculpture Platonic Flower, 2022 Engineered concrete & pigment 7’’, 9’’, 10’’ About The Artist Miguel A Otero Fuentes is a Puerto Rico-born USA migrant, a university trained architect specializing in facade design, and a self-taught sculptor. The intersection of these experiences informs art projects that are designed to stimulate human perception, and aimed to communicate thought-provoking abstract views using light, space, shape, number, and meaning. Otero Fuentes’ work oscillates between the visible and the invisible. He delves beyond the mere appearance of the physical realm to discover a grand design informed by a higher intelligence and a spiritual order. The utilitarian materials used to create the work, such as concrete, set forth an egalitarian, anti-elitist stance. Not only are these materials endemic to his architecture work; employed in artworks, their familiar and humble construction, deconstructs the haughty complexity of fine art –and renders the work accessible to everyone. Lastly, the work exploits simple geometric forms, such as spheres, squares, and triangles to further heighten this sense of the familiar. But unbeknownst to the participant, these forms are constructed following ratios that appear in nature; for example, shapes will be composed from relationships taken from the Earth:Moon proportion; hence these sculpted forms radiate a sense of perfection that intimates the divine order of the universe.

3D D3 (2): Contemporary Abstract painting/ sculpture on Canvas w Wood, Acrylic
By Alysha Grace Marko
Located in New York, NY
3DD3 (2) is a contemporary abstract mixed-media artwork with oil paint, wood, and acrylic paint. The piece features a brightly colored Chessboard with periwinkle and bright pink acrylic paint, reminiscent of pop art. The "chess pieces" are small wooden palm trees, inspired by Alysha's trips to Palm Beach when she was a budding painter, a theme of her early work. The unique premise of the artwork and its unique mediums make for a very special addition to any art collection. "I love the beach and sitting under the palm trees!" said Alysha when she was asked about the piece.
